Robert De Niro was on Reliable Sources yesterday and Brian Stelter got exactly what he asked for. The CNN host said to his guest, “Folks on Fox come after you. I remember the Tonys, you got up there and cursed.” Without hesitation, the Oscar winner responded by saying, “F*ck ’em. F*ck ’em.”
Then all of a sudden everyone was shocked that he dropped the f-bomb not once but twice live on the air. What did they expect? You ask him about cursing, of course, he is going to do it. It is what I would do. It is most likely what you would do. So I say to them, “F*ck ’em!”
Now when it comes to De Niro saying that the President “is like a gangster.” He has played a gangster enough times to know when someone is one. Right?
